"Let's start with a cliche' one line description of what the World Wide Web is. It's basically a lot of different files (all over the world) that are linked to each other, so that you can look at a file that has a link to another file and then follow that link to read the next file. (These days, it's not just files but useful programs, too.)" <--- http://www.mit.edu/~rei/wwwintro.html
"A widely used information system on the Internet that provides facilities for documents to be connected to other documents by hypertext links, enabling the user to search for information by moving from one document to another." <--- Google Dictionary
